ABOUT
ME
Passionate About Inspiring Others
Having come from a country that does not recognize the right to keep and bear arms, I have embraced American culture as an American by choice.
​
An NRA member since 2014, and a shooter for almost 20 years, I have taught many novice shooters, as an army boot camp instructor, as well a privately and professionally. I feel passionate about exposing new shooters to the safe and responsible exercise of the 2nd amendment.

About 40% of Americans say they or someone in their household owns a gun, and 22% of individuals (about 72 million people) report owning a gun, according to surveys from Pew and Harvard and Northeastern. The U.S. has just 4% of the world’s population but about 40% of civilian-owned guns globally, according to a 2018 report from the Switzerland-based Small Arms Survey (SAS). The SAS estimates that American civilians own 393 million guns, ranking the U.S. number one in firearms per capita.
​
To learn gun safety and the responsible handling of firearms is important for anyone, even if you don't intend to ever own a gun yourself. There is an extremely high likelihood that you or you children will at some point enter a home (of a co-worker, friend or relative) where guns are present. We cannot always count on the fact that they are kept in a safe manner. Thus, knowing how to be safe if we or our loved ones are exposed to a firearm is more important in America than in most other places in the world.
